Why we love Tencel® & think you will too
Tencel® Lyocell, also known as lyocell, is a sustainable fabric crafted from wood pulp, predominantly sourced from eucalyptus trees. Its eco-friendly credentials are impeccable, with a production process that boasts minimal environmental impact. What sets Tencel apart is its remarkable softness and breathability. It feels gentle against the skin, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin or those who seek ultimate comfort during outdoor adventures.
Moreover, Tencel possesses excellent moisture-wicking properties, efficiently drawing sweat away from the body and allowing it to evaporate, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. This feature is particularly advantageous during strenuous activities or in hot climates, where staying cool is paramount.
The Versatility of Merino Wool
Merino wool, derived from the fine fibers of merino sheep, is renowned for its natural insulating properties. Despite being incredibly lightweight, merino wool provides exceptional warmth, making it a versatile choice for outdoor apparel. What sets merino apart from traditional wool is its softness and lack of itchiness, attributed to its finer fibers.
Furthermore, merino wool possesses inherent moisture-wicking capabilities. It can absorb a significant amount of moisture before feeling damp, keeping the wearer dry and odor-free even during prolonged wear. Additionally, merino wool has the remarkable ability to regulate body temperature, providing warmth in cold conditions and cooling in hot weather, ensuring optimal comfort regardless of the outdoor environment.
But the magic truly happens when Tencel® meets merino wool. Together, they're a dynamic duo, keeping you cozy in the cold and cool in the heat. Tencel®'s rapid moisture-wicking abilities, combined with Merino's insulating prowess, make for a blend that's softer, more durable, and quicker to dry.
